Welcome to Shuree Piano Studio
Shuree Piano Studio offers much more than just how to play the piano. As a student, you will also learn discipline, teamwork, and music education.
My teaching is rooted in the belief that every individual is unique. I pay careful attention to student's unique qualities so that I can help the student to achieve their goals. My instructional process is flexible with a concern for individual differences and for problem solving and discovery. My method of teaching is a synthesis of styles observed throughout my studies. My goal is to create well-rounded musicians who are both technically fluent on their instruments as well as being globally aware of their potential impact as an artist. Achieving this will result in a performer who isn’t bound by technical limitations, but is instead free to express their artistic ideas. All Ages and Levels

- If you come late or need to leave early, which may happen occasionally, please do so.
- Please turn off your cell phone.

Before Your Piano Lesson
- Come prepared to focus for your entire lesson. Eat a small snack before hand so you don't get hungry.
- Wear nonrestrictive clothing.
- Wash your hands. There is a bathroom available for students and parents.
- Take off your rings and wrist watch so it doesn't affect your playing.
- Let your instructor know of any injuries, illnesses or special concerns so they can ensure the safety and pleasure of your piano lesson.
During Your Piano Lesson
- Attune each lesson by participating with mindfulness.
- Observe your body, don’t judge. Bring yourself to your relax and breathe.
- Give yourself permission to explore your arm movements and sounds. This is how you personalize the piano practice.
- I will do some “hands on” adjustments/suggestions. If you are not comfortable with this, or the extent to which it is done, please let me know. I am here to help you get the most out of your lesson.
- Breathing is a big part of piano playing. It is common to hold the breath during new, somewhat stressful situations.
After Your Piano Lesson
- Remember to take all of your personal belongings with you at the end of the lesson, especially your music books. The studio is not responsible for any lost items.
- Go over the materials and exercises we did in your lessons.
- Find your piano practice schedule. You will need to practice at least 30mins every day of the week unless traveling out of town.
- Start a practice journal.
- Bring questions.
- Parents, please pick up students on time. Please arrive at least 5 minutes before the lesson end time. The studio can not be responsible for watching over the student after the lesson ends.
